Using Doubled Tooth Combs to Braid Hair

Video Transcript

"A very common tool to use during any type of hairstyling, would be these combs that have two sets of teeth on them. What we have here is a very sturdy combs. Got a little bit of bend in it, which is good, it keeps them from breaking. We have the wider teeth over here and the finer teeth on this side. These are really close together, which makes it great for getting everything out of the hair, to make sure that it's really smooth before you get to working with it. Always use the wider tooth first to break up the hair before you get in here. You can really do a lot of breakage with this, if it?s not prepared. This is great to use first, and because it has this angle right here that makes it a little bit wider, that makes this part great for parting. If you just want to just stick with one comb, this would be the one that I would invest in. Because it's got the two teeth, you can stick with the one comb and really get everything you need to have done. The reason why I have multiple, is because these combs are great for holding hair to the side whenever you're doing braiding. After you've parted a section, you want to take one of these combs and just really stick it into one side to hold the hair back, and out of your way. This one is similar to these, except for it's a bit more shallow. You can tell by looking at this pink one and the blue, that the teeth are not as long, so what you could use this one for, and what I have used it for, is I take one of the longer teeth combs and I stick it in the hair, and if the hair is a little bit long, I stick this shorter one on top of it to make sure it stays back, so I can see what I'm doing along the part That's what these combs are great for. I really recommend them just for any type of regular everyday styling, but it's a great basic tool to have in your collection to really work on braiding."
